Hello everyone! To my blogger friends and regular readers, apologise for missing in action for nearly a month. Too many things happening and most are not good news that affecting very much on my mood. On top of that, I am as usual busy with my work and family. I am also planning for a year end holiday, just settled with the air-tickets and now stressing on the itinerary planning as this will be a 3-generation trip, challenging for me to plan out an itinerary that will please everyone lol.
I may not be able to post regularly but definitely gonna try my best, if stop for too long I am afraid I might give up blogging soon lol. Missing the days that I can post and visit my blogger friends regularly but for now, I am struggling....
These cakes were baked for give-away, lazy to try out new recipes and also to ensure the guarantee result, I used my all time favourite soft and moist banana cake. I baked many within a week so a bit sian :P, for this one, I added nutella.
250g salted butter
180g castor sugar
4 eggs
1/2 tsp pure vanilla powder
4 tbsp milk/ sour cream / yogurt
1 1/2 cups mashed banana (about 3 del monte bananas, I normally use more than that)
220g plain flour (sift together with 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda and 1 tsp baking powder)
10 tbsp nutella
Method:
1. Cream butter and sugar in a mixing bowl.
2. Add in eggs, vanilla essence and milk and mix well.
3. Add mashed banana into the mixture and mix well.
4. Finally add in sifted flour and mix well and pour into a cake tin.
5. Spoon nutella and add into the batter.
6. Bake in preheated oven at 160C for 1 hour or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. If the top layer turns brown after 15 minutes, cover it with a piece of aluminium foil.
7. Cool cakes in the pan then remove. Use a sharp knife to slice and serve
Verdict?
The cake is so delicious, taste even yummier with the added of nutella. Everyone who tasted the cake, given double thumbs up.
哈哈哈哈 。。。。。正要翻食谱。因为小菜园的香蕉成熟了。

Deleteso long did not bake a banana cake..
ReplyDeleteSonia, then give this recipe a try heeheehee...
Deletealways my son will finish up all the banana and i cant have it to bake a cake. wo..... yummy cake.
ReplyDeleteYou can bake the cake immediately once you get the bananas, if bananas are not ripe, you can toast at oven toaster to make it ripe :)
Deleteok. i get your tips. thanks. ha...
DeleteGlad to see you back and hopefully everything's fine now! I love banana and chocolate (especially nutella) so I'm definitely trying this out since you have praised this cake so many times!

thanks. your blog is in Melayu but I dun understand :P
DeleteJess, I've tried out your moist banana cake recipe and the results are fantastic, really really delicious and soft, but I don't really like sweet cakes so I'm thinking of taking away the sugar totally.
ReplyDeleteWill the cake become flat and leathery? What can I do to replace the sugar so that the structure of the cake will remain? Will adding more banana help?
Hi Kristy, thank you for trying out this recipe, this is my family and friends all time favourite.
DeleteI am not sure can you omit the sugar from cake since I never try before, if you dun like cake to be too sweet, perhaps you can replace with brown sugar or reduce the sugar further.
Just mouthwatering...looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteBanana and chocolate are perfectly matched. I have made muffins with this combination. This cake must be delicious.
ReplyDeleteHi jess, I have just tried out your recipe.
ReplyDeletehowever, the cakes are very wet, can you advise if I have missed out something?
Hi Jess, I have just tried out your recipe.
ReplyDeletehowever, the cakes are very wet.
the nutella has dissolved & the cakes look very dark.
did I missed out something?
Hi Elvira, did you do a skewer test to ensure the cake is fully cooked? cos wet may means the cake is undercooked. For all my bakes using this recipe, sometimes the cake is a bit more moist than others cos I put in more mashed bananas but I never encounter once that the cake is wet.
DeleteI am not sure why your nutella dissolved, cos every of my cakes that added nutella, the nutella melted when cake is hot but will be solidify a bit when cake is cooled.
Sorry, I am a novice baker.. Can you please tell me after spooning in the nutella, do I need to stir the mixture. I don't really understand the meaning of "Spoon in the nutella".
ReplyDeleteHi Jasmin, spoon in the nutella means you use spoon to scoop the nutella and drop into the batter. After spoon in the nutella, you can use the chopstick or satay stick to whirl the batter to create marble pattern. If not, you can just leave it.
